LA LUMIÈRE EST LA PREUVE QUE DES CORPS SONT PASSÉS PAR LÀ.

THE LIGHT IS THE PROOF THAT BODIES HAVE PASSED THROUGH IT.

DANS LA CHAIR DU DEUIL

DANS LA CHAIR DU DEUIL is a combination of elements composing a story that oscillates between reality and fiction. Between human and robot, the staging diverts the apparent romanticism of the image.

A replica of a hand screwed to the end of a woman’s arm opens a window in which the calm sea is reflected, in the light of the end of the day. An enclosed horizon echoes the absence of a body in an invading chiaroscuro. Between interior and exterior, skin and prosthesis, the image is constructed in a paradoxical dialectic that prefigures the ultimate opposite of existence: life and death.
